Had to higher someone to do it. I find it fairly easy to configure os but now.

It means that in your configure.php file that either the database User Name or Password is wrong. If this is only happening with the shop front and 'admin' is okay then check the two configure.php files off against one another.

Unfortunately it is also affecting the admin file as well.

 

You will need to edit your two configure.php file and make sure that the database info is correct. If you have done so and you think it is correct then you can find a couple of things to double check on this POST

The Knowledge Base is a wonderful thing.

Do you have a problem? Have you checked out Common Problems?

There are many very useful osC Contributions

Are you having trouble with a installed contribution? Have you checked out the support thread found Here

BACKUP BACKUP BACKUP!!! You did backup, right??
